Is Marked good?

Social recommendations and mentions

• Ask HN: Where are the good Markdown to PDF tools (that meet these requirements)?

  I’ve not used it for very large documents, but I’ve been very happy with the fidelity of conversion using Marked 2 (https://marked2app.com) I believe it’s Mac only. I use it sometimes when I’m creating PDFs from my personal documentation to share more publicly, which I keep in Markdown and deploy on Gitlab Pages as a static site. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Epub rendering with Pandoc

  I write a LOT of documentation in Markdown for $DAYJOB. I normally use Marked2 (not free, but I paid for my license 7-8 years ago) or MacDown (free) to preview them, and to export them to PDF. Both of these programs are specific to macOS, but a web search for "markdown editor" turns up a few dozen others, for other platforms. Most of these will have an "export to PDF" function built into them. Source: almost 2 years ago

• MdBook – Create book from Markdown files. Like Gitbook but implemented in Rust

  Marked 2 https://marked2app.com/ is a dedicated viewer for Markdown and other text formats, but it's Mac only. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Getting Tracked Food from WW API

  I use Marked2 on macOS which is a rendered but not an editor. I use vim, so I really just want a preview. Marked2 watches writes and automatically scrolls to the most recent write location. You can also customize CSS to get fancy with PDF exports if you want. https://marked2app.com. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Exporting Templates to PDF

  You could just open the underlying file with a better mardown>PDF app. If you're on a mac I suggest Marked2, which is very good. Source: about 3 years ago

• What is your development setup (IDE, gems, library, ci/cd etc) for RoR/non-RoR applications development ?

  For distributing the Ruby on Mac scripts, I make them available as a download, and I wanted to make it as easy and pleasant as possible to read the documentation. This meant I didn't want people to open up Markdown files. So, I use the Marked 2 app to open up the Markdown files, and then export them to HTML. Marked 2 comes with a bunch of themes, and GitHub is one of them, so the documentation looks great and... Source: over 3 years ago

• Why aren't there any plain VIEWERS for Markdown?

  I second Marked 2 if you use a Mac. All it does is render, but it does so superbly, in a large range of styles (you can even modify them or write your own if you know CSS). Source: over 3 years ago

• How can I ensure total Markdown compatibility? (Bonus: How important is it to you guys?)

  Just today I found a nice-to-have use case (exporting to pretty PDFs via Marked 2 app) that doesn't work with wikilinks. Source: over 3 years ago

• Vim Galore: everything you need to know about Vim

  > If not pure coding projects, at least for things like markdown, having a preview could help. You can use a dedicated app alongside Vim for that. On macOS, Marked2[1] is pretty great. [1]: https://marked2app.com. - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago

• Digging Panda a great deal (yet still a suggestion or question about layout features)

  There are markdown table editors that can convert it to CSV if you want, I use TableFlip. I’m not sure but I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if Marked supports that too, it’s an indispensable app. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Markdown Processor

  On mac, there is Marked 2. You can also use Pandoc to convert it to just about any other format under the sun. Source: about 4 years ago

• Just switched to Mac and I'm looking for a notetaking app that can sync across devices AND save files locally. Does such a thing exist?

  I use iaWriter on Mac, iPad & iPhone. The notes are stored on my iCloud drive and sync automatically whenever a change is made. You can also keep notes locally on any device (outside of iCloud drive) or on any other cloud service. I could also use apps like Ulysses or even Visual Studio Code to edit the files, and Marked to format them nicely (although iaWriter does that as well). Source: about 4 years ago

• What's a clever approach you're using to include Maths and diagrams in notes?

  I don't think Bear works great for notes with equations, due to readability/editing issues, but it depends on your workflow. MD preview in Marked2 is good and you can set your style if you're publishing to the web, that way you can preview it well. Source: over 4 years ago

• Templates for Word document?

  Best/easiest/most straightforward way would be to get Marked (also available through setapp) and create a custom css theme that matches your company’s official style sheet. Source: over 4 years ago

• Markdown 2 with Bear

  Just purchased Markdown 2 preview app for use with Bear. I wish it wasn't needed but don't want to wait for the Preview function capability in Bear. Source: over 4 years ago
